1970 Dodge Challenger factory 340 car

Heres a chance to buy a nice 1970 Challenger
best we can tell is original paint (Hemi Orange) with the black
trunk stripe. True 340 car. I was driving this car to local shows
and events for the last few yrs but recently its not been running as
well as it use to. Could be fuel pump or clogged fuel line in the tank
Could even be a fuel pump or points in the distributer.
Honestly when it became hard to start, I just parked it in the garage
and started driving some other cars.
Carb may need to be rebuilt too, but I did notice the fuel filter is not
filling up with gas either. I may put some fresh gas in it tomorrow and
see if it starts. 

I dont have to sit here and tell you how rare these cars have become.
I wont end the auction early for anyone. If it sells, then it was meant to
be, but if not, It will sit in the garage for a while till I can find time to
work on it again this Fall.

When it was out on the road, it ran well, plenty of power like it should be
and no weird noises or smoke. Ive always added Seafoam to the tank when
it sat for more then a month or so the gas in the tank should be fine. I usually
only keep 1/4 tank or less.


OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT a restored car but its a true survivor with some cool
options. Fender tag in place, Clear TX title in hand.


OUR 100% feedback speaks for itself 
and many of our feedback are from about 15 cars we sold just this past
year here on EBay. We put more time and effort into our ads making it much
easier for the potential buyers to bid with confidence.
The cars only been in Texas and Tucson , so the rust is minimal and what is 
there is mainly in the trunk pan. Rest of the car is super Solid.

DRIVETRAIN: this is a factory 340 car w/ a 727 automatics trans
which is on the column of all places, very rare. Built for 
fun and speed, no PS or AC but still a fun car to take out when
on evening cruises. Brakes work fine and all the lights work .
Tires are prob 8 yrs old, but the car sat alot more in the last 20
yrs then Id prefer it to. Mileage on the odometer could be original
but not saying for sure it is or not. Factory rearend out back.


INTERIOR: Black , best color I think
this car has a really rare front bench seat option
and obviously needs a some restoration, but looks complete
and all the main stuff there. Seats, dash, glove box etc.
Floors are very solid and its a very rust free car. Az has been 
hard on the vinyl, plastic and rubber, but most restorers can
do a full interior on a car like this in a weekend.
Think the radio still works too.

EXTERIOR: body for the most part, really straight. The previous
owner thought it would be a good idea to spray paint flat black
paint around various parts of the body which is why it has areas
of black on the original paint. Maybe just wetsand it off and keep
rest of the Hemi Orange intact for some cool patina.
The car did get some rust around the back window frame which
isnt horrible, but it will need to be fixed eventually. The Az climate
has keep it from getting much worse like an eastcoast humid area.
Chrome and stainless still in pretty nice shape and all original too.
Saw little to no pitting on any of it.
Still has the factory bumble or hockey stripe across the trunk
whatever they referred to it back then.


SUSPENSION: basically all stock and original 
 It will eventually need to be restored too of course. Still feels
tight going down the road, but Im sure a new set of shocks
are in its future.

This car is your typical rust free Arizona car but it is
a car that needs some rust repair and still better then one sitting
near the coast or in the rust belt. Az cars are the ones 
everybody wants and its for obvious reasons.
Less cost in the restoration and you have bragging rights to saying
90% of my sheetmetal on my car.... is the way it came from the
factory. 

It may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra scroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.

Junkyard Gem: 1988 Dodge Diplomat Salon

Sun, Jan 29 2017

Except for the Viper, Prowler, and some Mitsubishi-derived AWD machines, all Chrysler cars went front-wheel-drive starting in the 1990 model year and continued that way until our current century. The last holdout was the Dodge Diplomat (and its Plymouth Gran Fury and Chrysler Fifth Avenue siblings), and these cars were the most common police cruisers in America throughout most of the 1980s and well into the 1990s. You won't see many Diplomats today, but I found this high-luxe civilian Salon version in my local Denver self-service yard. This one was purchased new in Cheyenne, which is just up I-25 from Denver. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. A Diplomat was one of the automotive protagonists in the classic car-chase scene from the 1990 film, Short Time. Diplomats have figured heavily in many films over the years. I got my first driver's license in 1982, in a Navy town with ruthless Diplomat-equipped traffic-law enforcement, and so my right foot still twitches in the direction of a brake pedal when I see this grille. This one was full of Denver-centric ephemera from the early-to-middle 1990s, layered with the shredded paper and rodent poop that indicates long-term outdoor storage, so I'm guessing that the car's elderly owner stopped driving it 20 years ago and it sat until finally evicted by an angry landlord. These cars weren't known for being particularly quick in stock form. This one has the carbureted 318-cubic-inch V8 (yes, some cars still had carburetors as late as 1988), good for 140 horsepower.

Jay Leno's 426-powered 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 is simple and simply fun

Wed, Dec 21 2016

This week on Jay Leno's Garage, the man in denim presents one of his most subdued-looking cars, a 1966 Dodge Coronet 500. Despite that, it's one of his favorites. As he shows, the car is nearly free of any unnecessary options, excepting bucket seats and a console shifter. At least those are the only visible options, since the original owner also opted for the massive 426 cu. in. Hemi V8. What Leno really likes about the car is the honking huge V8 combined with the car's simplicity, especially the lack of frivolities like scoops, stripes, and wings. It's finished in a low-key, dark metallic green, and has plain-Jane "dog dish" wheel covers. The one downside to the vehicle is the lack of stopping and turning ability, Leno says, which is not surprising considering the four-wheel drum brakes and lack of power assist. And keep in mind, the Coronet is not a small car. Still, it's a mean green machine, and it sounds great. Leno also demonstrates the engine's capability to chirp the tires going into second gear, despite having a three-speed automatic and a relatively tall 3.23 rear axle gear ratio. Check out the video above to get the whole story and to hear rumbling V8 noises. Related Video:

Dodge Scat Pack for 5.7L Hemi V8 detailed, priced

Sat, 05 Apr 2014

Dodge revived the Scat Pack name back in November at the 2013 SEMA show. At the time, though, we were short of details on forthcoming upgrade packages, which were destined to add some oomph to the Challenger, Charger and Dart. We're still waiting to hear about the upgrades to the Dart's 2.4-liter four-pot, but Dodge has gone ahead and released the details on the upgrades to the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 in the Challenger and Charger R/T.
As we detailed in our original post, three different Scat Packs will be available that will allow customers to upgrade their cars without voiding the warranties. Starting with the $2,195 Stage 1 kit, owners will net an extra 18 horsepower and 18 pound-feet of torque thanks to a Mopar-branded cold-air intake, exhaust and ECU ref lash. Stage 1 is also the only package that could be installed outside of a Chrysler-authorized service center without voiding the warranty (a mechanically competent owner could even do it at home, we're told by Dodge). Stage 2 builds on the entry level Scat Pack, and adds performance camshaft kit, which boosts output over the stock 5.7 by up to 30 hp for $1,895. As with the Stage 1, the ECU is tweaked.
For those that want to go whole hog, they can add the Stage 3 for $4,995. The top-tier gets quite serious, adding CNC-ported cylinder heads, as well as high-flow headers and cats. Output over stock is 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque. Each kit comes with a pair of badges, just in case owners want a bit of visual flair.
